"Ah Yan." Compared with the surprise of Yan Ruren's master and servant, Yang Ci was much calmer, she had lived in the capital for so many years, and she would definitely meet acquaintances everywhere when she came back. She didn't feel sorry for Yan Ruren when she was in the palace, and she won't be now. She took a closer look at Yan Ruren and found that her face was haggard and her clothes were much simpler, Yang Ci sighed lightly, "Are you here to make incense?" ”

Now the life in the palace must be not easy, the royal dragon vein is broken, the emperor died violently, the capital is in chaos, in order to thoroughly investigate the matter, the various Xiuzhen sects sent the royal family to the Eastern Capital Palace for refuge, and the princesses of each province all entered the palace to serve the queen, but they didn't want the queen to lead a group of concubines, princesses and princesses to commit suicide, and most of the royal family dependents died. Yang Ci was also favored by Shen Changning at that time, and took her to Qingyang Palace for cultivation early and escaped. Because Yan Ruren is a concubine, she is not qualified to enter the palace to serve the queen, and she is also exempted from this difficulty.

Later, the royal family returned to Beijing after the capital, but the royal family no longer had the previous prestige, but the capital was like a sieve, taking turns to be seated by the envoys of all parties, and all parties entered and exited the capital as if no one was there. The cultivation sect only cares about evil cultivation and iniquity, never interferes in the rise of the dynasty, at most sends disciples under its name to help sentient beings, and does not allow soldiers to kill the people indiscriminately, the life of ordinary people is not much different from before, and the life of the royal nobles is not so good, the king of Jin is still the prince born to the queen, and he is the thorn in the eye and the thorn in the flesh of those festival envoys and grass kings.

"Princess, where have you been during this time?" Yan Ruren asked suspiciously, Yang Ci is five years older than her, and the perennial Qing Xiu has made her skinny and yellow, and she looks more than ten years older than herself, but now Yang Ci has black sideburns and snowy skin, and she can't even see the texture of the clothes on her body, what kind of backer has she found?

"I went to the sect with my master to practice." Yang Ci said, she has a pure temperament, and she will not fall into the trap and say that her master is Yan Ruren's master.

"The princess has gone to practice?" Yan Ruren was taken aback, when she first entered the palace, she also met an immortal master to guide her to practice, at that time she was just a concubine who was not favored by the palace, and gave birth to a frail daughter and did not get any promotion, but was framed and sent to the Taoist temple for recuperation. It is no different from recuperating in the cold palace, if she didn't meet the master, she wouldn't have been able to turn over, but after regaining the favor of King Jin, Yan Ruren never insisted on it anymore.

Pure heart abstinence and recitation of scriptures every day, not to be presumptuous desires, abstain from eating meat and fish, and even abstain from male and female lust, what is the name of such a life? Not to mention that the master also asked her not to get pregnant, if she only had one daughter, how could she gain a foothold in the palace? Gradually, Yan Ruren completely gave up his practice. But now seeing the princess looking so complex, I can't help but wonder in my heart, did she do something wrong?

The Taoist priest of Qingyang Palace saw that Yang Ci was slow to move, and when she encountered any trouble, he stepped forward to inquire, Yang Ci also felt that she had stayed too long, she had nothing to do with the Jin Wangfu now, she politely refused, "No need, I'm leaving." ”

Yan Ruren's face changed slightly when she heard the words senior sister, she knew that Qingyang Palace was the dojo of Taishang Sect, and her master was also a disciple of Taishang Sect, "The princess is a monk in Qingyang Palace?" ”

"Forget it, Qingyang Palace is the dojo of my sect." Yang Ci looked at the sky and said, "I won't delay Ah Yan Jinxiang." So saying, she was about to board the carriage.

Yan Ruren stepped forward, bowed down to the Taoist priest and said, "I've seen the Taoist chief." ”

"Good faith and mercy." The Taoist priest returned the salute.

"Dare to ask Dao Chief, when did our princess enter the sect? Who is Gao Zhen worshipping? Yan Ruren asked, obviously she is the master's disciple, they can't be deceived by Yang Ci, right?

The Taoist priest heard this, and looked at the Yan family with a smile, in fact, the Yan family was named in the Qingyang Palace, and the Qingxu Palace was in the same vein from the Xuantian ancestor, and the protection of the short in the same vein, Bai Xue had entrusted the host of the Qingyang Palace to care more about the Yan family before leaving, so the Qingyang Palace has always taken good care of the Yan family over the years, but all the magic weapons distributed by the sect have a share of the Yan family. However, the Yan family lived up to Bai Xue's hard work and did not look back towards the glory of the world.

Later, Uncle Shen came to Beijing, and Uncle Bai abandoned the Yan family to accept Yang Ci as an apprentice, and everyone didn't pay attention to the Yan family anymore, but after all, after so many years, as long as the Yan family went to Qingyang Palace, they were always polite to her. In the past, I was greedy for enjoyment and was not willing to suffer from cultivation, but now that King Jin is having a hard time, I want to practice? The Taoist priest glanced at Yang Ci, and when he saw that Yang Ci wanted to stop talking to him, he secretly said in his heart that this junior sister was kind-hearted.

"The princess didn't let this Taoist chief speak, was she afraid that her lies would be exposed?" Yan Ruren reversed her gentle and dignified temperament, and asked aggressively, "You don't dare to tell the truth to the Taoist?" ”

Yang Ci frowned, "I have never told lies in my life. "Yang Ci's father is a celebrity, her personality is deeply influenced by her father, she is crazy and lonely, so she is particularly uncomfortable after marrying into the royal family, she has a mediocre relationship with the King of Jin, and after giving birth to a daughter, the King of Jin is no longer close to herself, she doesn't care, she is dedicated to teaching her daughter Qing Xiu, how can she do something deceitful? She didn't understand why Yan said that she was a liar? Qingyang Gongtai is half a monk, will they still be deceived by her as a mortal?

"Do you worship the master, are you hiding from the top and the snow from the bottom?" Yan Ruren asked domineeringly.

"Not bad." Now that Yan has guessed it, Yang Ci doesn't hide it, "My master is Bai Dao Chang." ”

"Yang Ci, you rob my master!" Yan Ruren finally couldn't help but shout.

Yang Ci and the Taoist priest were surprised when they heard this, "How can you say this?" Yang Ci asked puzzledly, when did she rob Yan's master? Obviously, the master took pity on her and accepted herself as a disciple, and the master was not only her disciple, why did she rob it?

"Bai Dao Chang is obviously my master! She's been my apprentice for more than a decade! Did you lie to her? Yan Ruren said angrily.

Yang Ci was both stunned and amused, "Shizun is a monk, I am just an ordinary person, how can I lie to her?" Besides, she's not just me, so why should I lie to her? ”

She also knew that the master accepted Yan as an apprentice decades ago, but unfortunately Yan didn't stick to it, and the master gave up on her. This is Yan's own choice, Yang Ci will not comment, but she will never choose such a path, if she met the master more than ten years ago, she will definitely take her daughter back to the sect with the master. When you are successful in your cultivation, how do you want to shelter your relatives, why delay in the world for more than ten years? As long as you have the ability, you can better protect your family, just like Shen Zhenren and Uncle Shen, the Shen family is now so valued by the Gai family, is it not because of these two protections?

"Then why didn't the master come to pick me up?" Yan Ruren questioned angrily.

Taoist priest Qi said: "We are Xuanmen quietly, what are you doing as a secular woman?" ”

"I'm Bai Daochang's apprentice." Yan Ruren said.

"You haven't done the apprenticeship ceremony, what kind of apprentice are you? You said that you are Uncle Bai's apprentice, so why didn't you cultivate? The Taoist priest said disdainfully, "Is it true that when our Taishang Sect is an outside shop, you can come and go freely?" "Anyone in the world can practice, but not everyone can cultivate successfully, the world has always been to pay first and then get, except for the evil sect who can get without work? Even if it is an evil sect, it will also damage its own merits and good fortune, and destroy what it has gained in the next life.

"I-" Yan Ruren was speechless.

"Did Uncle Bai let you abstain from lust and purify your heart before leaving, and also advised you not to covet the prosperity of the world and the love between men and women?" The Taoist priest asked coldly.

Yan Ruren's lips were slightly pursed, and he didn't know how to respond.

"Since you are obsessed with soft red fragrant soil, you don't have to come to the quiet place of the sect, the sect is for people who are dedicated to pure cultivation, not a place for ordinary people to play." The Taoist priest said lightly that the sect would accept Yang Ci because she was devout to the heart of the Dao, even if she couldn't win the Great Dao in this life, she could still cultivate a merit in the next life, and it would be a waste of resources for a person like Yan's daughter to be included in the sect.

Yan Ruren was ashamed and anxious, and after a while, she pulled Yang Ci's sleeve and begged bitterly, "Princess, the slave knows that you have always been generous, and the slave only asks you to save us for the sake of my child who is also the blood and bone of the King of Jin!" ”

Yang Ci was surprised and asked: "Although the palace is no longer the Xuanhe of the past, it is also worry-free about food and clothing, why do you need me to save it?" "The royal family is now a decoration, and it is too late for the princes and kings to intrigue and fight, so how can there be any leisure to deal with the king of Jin? Besides, the master did not take back the storage bag given to the Yan family, just relying on the pills and treasures in the storage bag were enough for Yan Ru and the child to have no worries for a lifetime.

Yan Ruren screamed: "You only care about your own enjoyment, and you don't care about the life or death of your husband and children?" ”

Yang Ci pulled back his sleeves and said: "Yan Ruren said cautiously, I have reconciled with the King of Jin, he is not my husband, and Qing Xiu is not enjoyment." ”

"What and off! Where does the royal family come and go! It's clear that you are greedy for glory! Yan Ruren sneered, Yang Ci was not in the house when he was in the Eastern Capital, obviously he had already been tied to the Taishang Sect at that time, they suffered in the capital, but she enjoyed happiness in the sect, "There is such a ruthless mother in the world, you actually abandon your husband and children, you are worthy of them!" ”

Seeing her such an unbearable attitude, Yang Ci wanted to stop talking, and finally sighed lightly, "It's up to you." "No wonder Master Qin will warn herself, no matter at any time, she can not give up the pursuit of strength, she can choose the attitude she wants in life, but she can't give up the pursuit of strength, maybe hard work may not be able to save herself, but it is definitely better than relying on others. If you don't seek to be aggressive, you can only be as unbearable as Yan's in the end. Not every choice can be reversed, and life cannot be smooth sailing. The daughter has a daughter's way to go, and by raising her and teaching her by herself, she has fulfilled her mother's responsibility.

"I want to see the master! The master must have been deceived by her! Yan rushed to the inner hall in a hurry, but he didn't want to bump into a person head-on, the two of them collided heavily, Yan Ruren's anxious face turned white, Yang Ci was stunned and stepped forward to help Yan Ruren first, and then helped up the person who collided with her.

The person who came glared and said, "What are you!" Don't you walk with long eyes? Do you know who I am? Delay my big thing, see how I clean you up! ”

Yan Ruren was hit by someone who came and was in severe pain, and when she heard her words, she trembled with anger, even in the years when she fell out of favor in the Jin Palace, no one dared to be so rude to her. Yan Ruren's little maid in Tsing Yi also reacted, and scolded her weakly: "Rude and cheap, you dare to be rude to our widows!" ”

That person was also a maid in Tsing Yi, and sneered when she heard this: "Isn't it just a cheap concubine who can't get on the stage, do you know what our master's surname is?" Get out of the way! ”

When Yan Shi heard this, his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted, Yan Ruren's maid didn't have time to refute, and someone behind him angrily reprimanded: "Let you go to a real person to save your life, you are chewing your tongue with someone!" Don't hurry up and apologize to this lady! The person who came said to Yan Ruren again: "The family education is not strict, which makes the lady smile." Is the lady unwell? I have already sent someone to ask for a doctor and a peace pulse for the lady. "This man was a servant woman in her forties.

"No need!" Yan held a breath in his heart, it was when he was unhappy, where was he impatient to worry about others, "I don't know who your master's surname is?" It's okay for me to wait to open my eyes. ”

The servant woman glared at the maid in Tsing Yi fiercely, and said with a smile: "It's all the old slave's lax discipline, which disturbed the lady, and the old slave asked the maid to make amends to the lady." ”

Yan Ruren saw that the servant woman was followed by a group of subordinates, and the word "Ning" was written on the carriage led by her, she sneered twice and said: "It turned out to be the mansion of Shen Junhou, the Duke of Ningguo, no wonder he is so domineering!" "The royal family is declining, and the local festival envoys have been divided into kings, and the strongest of them is undoubtedly the current prime minister, the former Yangzhou festival envoy Gai Jiayun. Gai Jiayun only has one son, Gai Tianbao, who married the so-called Twelve Niangs of the Shen family as his wife, and those who are discerning do not know that Shen Twelve Niangs is the Shen Sanniang of the year.

The servant woman was secretly annoyed that the little maid in Tsing Yi acted frivolously, but she was the second lady's beloved maid, she apologized repeatedly, Yan ignored it completely, and thought in her heart how to make Yang Ci agree to take their mother and son to the sect together, the life in the capital is getting more and more difficult, and the identity of the king of Jin is not to be either. She used to be stupid, thinking that King Jin was handsome and romantic, but she didn't think that mortals were mortals after all, he was young and strong before, but once he lost this identity, King Jin aged more than twenty years overnight, so that Yan couldn't bear it, and her appearance hasn't changed yet!

When Yang Ci heard that it was the Ningguo Mansion, he couldn't help asking, "What are you doing in Qingyang Palace?" ”

The servant woman saw that Yang Ci was extraordinary, but she was not lazy, "We are here to find Gao Zhen of Qingyang Palace to save the life of my second lady." "Pei, the second son of the Shen family, is Changning's cousin, Changning's nominal mother is Pei's aunt, and the Shen family takes good care of Pei because of Changning's relationship.

Pei's family is usually indulged by her mother-in-law Lin, and she acts without scruples, she actually took the pregnancy pill and became pregnant with multiple babies at once, and even the doctor couldn't diagnose how many children she had in her belly. At present, it is only five months, and the belly is already so big that it is showing off its might, and this day is even more unconscious, and the personal maid who is waiting for it is so shocked that she said that Pei Shi worshiped the mother who sent her son and took the pregnancy pill.

The Lin family had heard the rumors of the pregnant Dan, and was shocked, angry and angry, but he couldn't bear to ignore the lives of his daughter-in-law and grandchildren who had not yet had an accident, and hurriedly sent someone to Qingyang Palace for help. The servant woman saw that she sent someone to find the Taoist priest of Qingyang Palace, and on the other hand, she came up to apologize to the Yan family, and the Shen family was strict, once upon a time there was such a rude and frivolous servant, and she must have been betrayed by her wife when she went back!

Yang Ci said: "You come with me." She motioned for the servant to come with her, "Your lady is here too, aren't you?" Bring her along, Qin Zhenren wants to see you. ”

The servant woman knew that the real person was the exclusive title of the Jindan monk, so she didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly ordered her subordinates to slowly lift the sliding rod and follow behind Yang Ci, and on the tightly covered sliding rod lay the half-fainted Pei Shi. Gao Zhen of Qingyang Palace is not an ordinary doctor, if he wants to ask them to treat his illness, he can only bring the patient into Qingyang Palace, and they will not leave the Dao Palace without permission.

When the Taoist priest of Qingyang Palace saw that Yang Ci actually went to the retreat place of Qin Zhenren in the backyard of the Shen family, he secretly envied in his heart, it was really someone in the court who was good to be an official, and the Shen family could even see Qin Zhenren as an ordinary servant, if they had this opportunity.

Yang Ci led everyone to Qin Yiqing and was not good at making claims, but Qin Yiqing sent a message to himself and asked her to bring people over. Is the Shen family Uncle Shen's family? No wonder Master Qin attaches so much importance to it. Yang Ci didn't know that Qin Yiqing attached great importance to Pei's family and Changning, and the matter of the pregnancy pill was easy to solve, just take a few pills of Zhuji Dan, and she didn't need to do it personally. She asked Yang Ci to bring Pei over because Pei had a peach wood bracelet on his body with a heart mantra and a spell!
